- this is not a bad overview of the variety, although it skimps on the use of meditation to gain knowledge - not insight / awareness / understanding: knowledge: http://liveanddare.com/types-of-meditation/;and
- a brilliant book, published in 2017 and found by me in 2020: my review is at https://gnwmythr.blogspot.com/2020/05/post-no-1573-evidence-supporting.html;

I recently came across a few links as a result of search which overlap/emphasise/provide a new perspective on the points above:
- From “The Buddha Journey”, posted on 26th July, 2013 by Quant Trí: “Nine Levels of Meditation”;
- From “Glorian”: “What are the stages of Meditative Concentration?”;
- From “Healthline” - but note that their “definition” of what meditation is for is WRONG (see my links above): “Which Type of Meditation Is Right for Me?”
